What a weekend... Sunday was Italia Auto Club's gathering at Putrajaya. My fisrt time attending their gathering event, so it was so darn exciting. Met at Extreme Park Sunway, and went in a convoy. A FAST convoy, mind you. They were moving at an average of 150-180kmh... I was trailing them somewhere in the middle at 150-160kmh. Nice feeling of firing up those engines and letting them roar! WHOA~ Well, when there's a group of 30+ Italian stallions that should be pretty normal. louis vuitton handbags There were 145s, 146s, 147s, 155s, and 156s... oh yeah, and the Coupes, Puntos, Bravas and a Marea... It was an awesome sight. We took the route through Cyberjaya, and took some photos along the way. Once in Cyberjaya, once on the putrajaya bridge. Then final stop was Putrajaya itself, at the runabout near Souq. After photo shooting and arranging of the cars, we went makan at Souq. Chit chat and talk cock... then we had some photos by the lake, few more shots by the cars and then we headed back. I could see Subsonique taking beauty shots of his Panda in front of the Putrajaya Administation building... haha... I'll post the photos once they're done. I brought both my SLR and my Digicam.
Gatherings like this allow me to take my mind off the problems I have, and at least is another addition to my social life. I'll need all the distraction I can get. Watched Madagascar on the same day too, was pretty good. Stylish, I must say... You've gotta love those penguins...
Okla, nothin much more to say. Trying to help Val with her friend's work. I feel sorry when I see her all stressed up with work, so at least I'll try what I can lessen the burden some way or another...
Angi still blocks me on MSN... hmm..., she say because I kacau her a lot... well, sorry lo... was just having fun... hope she takes me off the block list soon, sad la to be on the block list. I must be conservative, I suppose...
That's all for now,
PEACE and God Bless,

Confessions of a Broken Heart
I notice my blogs have been getting terribly long, I plan to shorten it soon... gradually...
There are times I do wonder how God plans things for us... Most of the time, things make sense much later. I know, because they happened to me many times in my life. But there are times I wonder, why must one hurt so many times... and especially after trying so hard. Yeah, there's a friend of mine whom I care so much for, but somehow there's just no response. Yeah, I've adored her since college, trying to give signs to her, but she just didn't notice... Maybe I'm just not suitable for her? Maybe... but I did care for her very much, if you ask me, I'd do anything for her. louis vuitton handbags But I guess maybe I just didn't show her enough... Yeah, she's happy now. She found herself a boyfriend a few months back. I can hear her happy stories with him, how she feels this guy is so suitable for her. How he's so special and close to their family. I'm happy for her. Don't get me wrong, it might hurt very much for me, but all I want is for her to be happy, and if this guy is the one for her, then I won't interfere... I only pray to the Lord that this guy would care for her, and never make her cry. Because if he did, God knows I won't forgive him... If it were me, I'd do anything, everything I can for her. If she wanted someone to care for her, comfort her, support her... I could have done it for her. But I guess there's just no use thinking too much about this. There's no use regretting now... I guess she never knew I liked her so much. I'll just let her be happy. She'll always mean something to me, despite the fact that she's going out with someone else. And I wish her lots of luck, and pray that she'll be always happy... For now, I'll just quietly heal my heart, it's always the best choice to keep all your feelings for someone who'd love you back...
Okay, not to keep everything all gloomy and dark. Yesterday was quite a nice day actually... Had a lot of fun and jokes at work with Val and Angi. They're just so funny... Yeah, there was quite a lot of layout work to be done, but thankfully, these light moments really take the pressure away... Our Lifestyle editor Imran belanja-ed us dinner, in exchange for late hours of work. Yeah, me and Val were the last to leave the office at 9pm. It was some really good Domino's pizza... The mushroom sausage one was splendid!!! Superbly delicious! Woo hoo... The bbq chicken wings were real good too, as well as the seafood pizza... Our CEO Jessie joined in on us after that too, but the slices she took were quite cold and hard, due to it being left under the air conditioner...
On Monday I spent my mum tickets to watch Revenge of the Sith. My second screening... 1st for my mum though. It was swell! You really notice things when you watch a movie a second time.
*SPOILERS* (To some people la, to me, not really, it was BOUND to happen)

Things like Yoda dropping his lightsaber after the duel with the emperor. That's why in The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, he didn't have one when training Luke. And Obi-Wan took Anakin's lightsaber, and that's why he could give it to Luke in A New Hope. Remember his line, "Your father would have wanted you to have this, when you were old enough..." haha... penipu~ And Senator Organa took care of Leia, and that's why Leia's family name was Organa. Personally I think Darth Vader's first entrace scene was pretty cheesy, with the "That can't be..." line... Sounds just like Anakin except in a suit. But well, Anakin IS Darth Vader. I'm pretty much satisfied with the movie, expect me to wath it a couple of times more or so... as a farewell to this excellent saga. I still have the Clone Wars to watch as well as the upcoming TV series...
PS: I really pity the brave little boy padawan who was trying to escape to Organa's ship...

I Seek...
Nothin much happened the last few days... That's the weekend, mind you. But it's always been like dat. Sunday, our only free day. There's not much that can be done in just a day... I wish I could go for some outing, or have fun like I used to... shopping, bowling, clubbing, a movie... or going for a trip... or even just a simple go out together with friends... sigh, it's just too much to ask nowadays. I'm sure it'll come someday, when we're all free. Hopefully...
There's a club meeting set for the 29th, hope I'll be a be to attend, as I'm gaining a ffk reputation. So far 24 people or so have confirmed.... Meeting point to be confirmed at this week's TT session... ;-p
Watched Kingdom of Heaven yesterday... finally... It was awesome, brings a lot of important messages, as well as an insight to what possibly happened during the crusades. It shows that sometimes people can get lost and fight a war claiming it to be a fight in the name of God, but in fact there was a materialistic value to it... like a quote from the movie, which one is more important, the walls of stone in Jerusalem, louis vuitton handbags or the people in it? That is one thing we should ponder upon. Something God wants us to do is to love, not hate. And protect our loved ones, the women, children and the elderly, is our responsibility. Movies like this make you think, so if you haven't seen it, better go for it before screening ends... Oh yeah, there's 3 times more blood and violence than Revenge of the Sith, and the battle sequences were breathtaking. Marvelous stuff...
Okay, been soul-searching a lot lately, thinking of who I am, what am I doing here and what I should do. Been reaching out to God for an answer, but there's just no clear one... I wish God would give me a sign and lead me to the correct path which I should choose... I really do wish... For if God shows me the way, I shall follow... That's my prayer, and hope you guys pray for me too. It is an answer that I seek...
Been also doing my best to let go of my source of pain, and it's not easy, never was, and I believe possibly never will be... But I try to do so. I've tried hard, but there's no point if there's no response. I'll just be cool, and let time tell... just wait and see what happens...
Okla, donno what else to say... starting to talk nonsense liao. I pray that this week is better than the last, it's always something to look forward to... Today's a holiday but still I have to work. Sigh... So till next time,
PEACE and God Bless,

The FORCE is Strong Today
Okay, yesterday was a pretty exciting day... there was a big birthday bash, and there was the big movie... I quite enjoyed both. :-p
Okay, remember when I once said that you can't pull a prank on Angi? Well, I guess you can, although it was sifu Allan who did it... He told Angi that we were having an emergency meeting to discuss about something that she did. And she might be in trouble, possible sacked... poor thing... Then sifu asked her not to cry when inside. Then when she enters, we surprise her with the birthday feast we did for her in the meeting room! :-D It wasn't her birthday yet, but we did it early... She was so surprised!
Well, I'm so glad the plan went well, it was something I planned from a week ago for her, and I didn't put it in a blog or anywhere, in case she read it. I haven't even sent her a birthday wish on Friendster, because wanted to act as if we forgot about it... Then I also got Val to help me with the plan. She's a real good organizer, and she got Imran, Farah, Kathy and the rest to join in. The cake was bought the day before, during our long lunch break.... kept it in the fridge, with instructions to everyone not to eat it. chanel handbags Angi almost opened it on D-Day to put her cake in, thankfully she didn't. hehe... Wanted to get strawberry, since she likes starwberry, but there weren't any left, so we got a wild forest one, real good... It was from La Manila, awsome cakes...
Then there was the present-giving occasion, and I was really happy to see the smile on her face when she opened her presents... I was worried whether she'd like the perfume I got for her, but she did, and I'm so relieved. After everything was done, you can see one really happy girl in the office. I've never seen Angi smiling so much before. That really made my day happy...
Then there was a rush to finish the last remaining pages and send them to the press for printing. It was like so rush to the finish. After all's done, we rushed to Times Square for Revenge of the Sith. The movie was simply AWESOME and I mean A-W-E-S-O-M-E! The opening sequence was simply breathtaking, the fighting scenes intense, the emotions all high and so much killing. Damn, it was violent for a Star Wars movie... I'm not gonna send any spoilers, in case anyone reading this hasn't watched it. And you should, if you haven't... To enjoy it more, watch it without expectations, and it'll be swell... I wanna go watch again! General Grevious was awesome, as well as that giant lizard creature that made irritating noises. And Yoda has the best lines, AND kicks ass... It was 2 and a half hours long, and we finished quite late at night. Me, Val and my bro went back together, along with a few surprises (misplaced the ticket and forgot where the car was). Guess I was too excited. This surely was such a great day... Till next time,
PEACE and God Bless,

20.05.2005 and D-Day
Okay, yesterday was a much better day than the shitty day before... there is still sadness that is kept inside, but I'll be strong, and God willing, I will be able to keep it going. There were quite a lot of laughter at work yesterday, and it sure did take a bit of the load off our backs. Angi was quite funny, but yeah, she's just too smart, so can't really try to do a prank on her without her knowing... or is that so...? hehehe... Val's getting funnier everyday, our making fun of work is getting worse and worse, but I admit it's rather fun... Something's bound to happen today by the way... On the way back Val tumpang-ed my car back, and I managed to talk with her a bit on faith and religion. chanel handbags Not that much though, cause it wasn't long before we reached her house. But we managed to talk about our views on things like Resurrection, Holy Spirit and etc. Hope to chat with her more on this in the future, cause it's pretty interesting... ;-p
Today is D-Day for Revenge of the Sith! YAY!!! Can't wait to see... Most of the office is going. Poor Angi donated her ticket to her bro, which was so nice of her. If only I had an extra ticket, I would have spared one for her... We're probably going to go in a convoy, as Eliza doesn't know the way, so she's following my car from the back later. Dunno bout the others, but I'm so super excited! You can bet that this won't be my only screening... Time to get ready the black cape and red lightsabers... May the Force be with you...
My Lifestyle Editor went to the launch of the Perodua MyVI, and he camme back with a few goodies. He was kind enought to give me a MyVI cap and t-shirt! I was like, "serious?". He said yeah... I was so happy! The car looks real good, especially in black, red and orange. Wonder how it'll be on the road and whether the build quality will last though. The Proton TRM is around the corner too, and I suspect these two cars are going to go face-to-face to gain the same target audience...
Yesterday was also Miri's city-status announcement. 20.05.2005... nice date! I found out from Boon, whom I called later at night. There were all those celebrations on TV and even some Malaysian Idol finalists were there...
Oh well, that's all for today, till next time,
PEACE and God Bless,

Yesterday was also Miri's city-status announcement. 20.05.2005... nice date! I found out from Boon, whom I called later at night. There were all those celebrations on TV and even some Malaysian Idol finalists were there...
Oh well, that's all for today, till next time,
PEACE and God Bless,

Crap Day
Okay, not much to write, or rather, not much I want to write. I was hoping that this week would be a good week, but trust me, yesterday was one of the most emotionally stressful days in my life. I've never felt so low and lost before... It was more like internal pain, a bleeding heart... I just didn't know what to do. I'm not going into too much details, it's just too complicated for most to understand. Well, at least there was Val at the end of the day, chanel handbags was a real pal, helping me out at times like these. And I guess after a whole night of sadness and too much thinking, eventually I woke up today less upset. But the feeling remains, an emotional torture in which I still do not fully understand...
Sorry for my uninterpretable crap, I've had better days.
PEACE and God Bless,

Inner and Outer Storm Brewing...
Yesterday was quite a day... aside from being a little frustrated at work, a few things happened on the way back.
Work was quite okay yesterday, due to the fact that there was only the lifestyle section to do... been frustrated lately when certain people talk in Chinese, and knowing me, having not learned, I just can't get what people are talking about. And sometimes I find it to be quite insensitive to talk in front of someone who doesn't understand... So I tend to feel left out... And this has taken it's toll lately... It's no secret that I have long wished that I was a full Chinese and not a mix, as that'll solve all the stupid woes I've been experiencing since young... But who am I to say such things... Sigh. Just expressing some angst in the morning... Well, Val was nice enough to translate a bit for me. But still...
Had a nice time at lunch, KFC! Seems that Val likes it a lot... haha. But it was fun, went to Ampang Park there to eat. Curry Crunch again... Then we decided to walk around, but there was nothing really interesting, so we just went back to office... Checked the magazine store, but nope, Traffic's still not out. The magazine's really late this month...
On the way back there was quite a storm brewing... Drove my Bug today, so I was just moving along safely in the rain. Then there was quite heavy traffic, due to typical Malaysians who drive awfully slow in the rain. Then after the first toll booth, I felt a jerk and crashing sound. There was no mistake, I was hit from behind. Okay... it was raining and there was heavy traffic. I was a civilized person, so I signalled, parked at the side and swiched on the hazard lights. Then I stepped out of the Beetle to inspect the damage. Looking at the bumper, it seemed okay. Then I moved to look a the culprit. He looked awfully nervous. He said, "ss...ss...sorry...". I asked him what was he thinking, just bumping like dat. He just replied, "err.. sorry...I just bumped". Obviously... sigh. But I wasn't a type of person who'd take his axe-steering lock and hit the other fella's car. I wasn't in a good mood, due to personal problems, but I wouldn't wanna ruin someone's day, summore it was raining. So I just let him off. His new Honda Civic probably gained more damage, since the Bug's bumper was pure steel and able to take a certain amount of impact. But in the end it was the physical reaction of plastic meets steel that saved the say. If his bumper was harder, it might have crushed his car's front. I know because I've been hit by a Wira before. Sigh... what's with people and hitting my rear? Well, as I let him off he said again, "ss...sorry". I just told him, "Becareful next time...".
Then as I continued travelling back, there was one bugger of a Wira which swerved in my path. Then I had to undego heavy braking, and since the road was slippery, the Bug skidded. Yeah, that's right, no ABS or ESP... it's 35 years old for God's sake. And being a RR (Rear-Engine, Rear-Wheel-Drive) car, it skidded sideways, chanel handbags like those crazy drifting championships... Well, it swerved left, I counter steered to the right, then the rear wheels went to the front... I countered back to the left to centralize the Bug. There, straight. I suddenly feel like Jeremy Clarkson. I realize that God once again saved my life. There was a moment of silence, and I prayed, thanking the Lord for always watching over me.
Well, that's all for today...

Laughter is the Best Medicine
Okay, yesterday was quite an okay day. One of the nicer days I've had in a while... had so many laughs over so many silly jokes and one-liners with Val. Haha... never had so much fun with a person since Chong. She sure is one funny girl. :-p Well, at least this keeps us off the workload, which I admit is still rather much. And I heard they're not ready to accept any new people at the moment, so that'll be pressure on us. chanel handbags Easing up the pressure makes working life much lighter... Angi went off early, because she has her usual Monday class. If not she could have joined in on the crappy fun... hee hee...
Not much to say today really... well, today's issue cover has a creepy image of Glazer looking like a demon. Nightmarish stuff... but the funny part was that in the original image he looked rather... joyful. haha... sifu terror lei... Went to Lotus for lunch yesterday, i didn't know there was one nearby... Not bad really, and now there's one extra choice for lunch...
Oh well, better not blabber too much since there's nothing to say... Did some research online on car rear speakers and subwoofers, as I hope to get one of them in the near future... Alpine speakers look the real deal, as for the subs, the Kenwood ones look rather good, though Alpine kicks ass too... Hope this can ease the unbalanceness of the car's audio setup.
Till next time,
PEACE and God Bless,

I Saw Darth Maul in a Toilet!
Okay, quite an eventful week... a lot of ups and downs, but mostly downs... Sigh. Not much I can do at the moment, I can only pray that things would get better. Learning to be strong is not an easy task, but I'm going to face it in the eye so that don't have any regrets later. I've been through a lot of hardships in the past, so I'm not gonna back down this time. Hard to explain really, and only few of my close friends know what I mean.
Okay, spent quite a bit this weekend, it was quite painful financially. Because it's hard-earned money, it was a little tough to fork it out. But since it's for someone special, I guess it's okay. Love is blind, as some might say. The weekend was quite a rush, and I couldn't get to watch Kingdom of Heaven.. sigh. But there was some time to check out the Brother's HQ in Kelana Jaya. Damn, that's one huge accessory shop. They have almost everything there. The focus was to get a third brake light and an antennae. There was only enough time for the brake, so I was recommended to get a Hella white one. It was rather cool, it looks white/chrome when off, and shines bright (and I really mean BRIGHT) red when lit. Was more expensive than the rest, but what matters is the quality, as I'm replacing the faulty LED Sign one I currently have fitted on. The new one consists of 12 LED bulbs, 6 on a row. There were a few antennae designs, but I guess I'll drop by some other time. Also saw a Kenwood woofer for RM168. Rather expensive but might be a worthwile investment in the future. My rear speakers are of a higher priority, having being drowned by the new Boschmann speakers and tweeters up front. Anyway, Project 155's doing fine...
This week's gonna get real exciting, I hope. There's our free tickets to the premiere of Revenge of the Sith, which I really really can't wait. Hee hee... Tagging my bro along. Feel a lil sad for Angi, as I heard from her a bit later that she was hoping that I'd let her lil bro watch too with my extra ticket. Sigh, if only there were more... but we're considered rather lucky, because I saw photos in The Star, showing people lining up until outside the building hoping to get a ticket. And you bet I'll be watching this movie a few times... hehe. Similar to the multiple times I watched The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones. And the screening of the special edition original trilogy... was WAY cool. Of course, there's the original trilogy in video which I have watched to death. haha...
Speaking of Star Wars, I saw Darth Maul in a toliet! I was going to the loo in Mid Valley on Sunday when suddenly this dark figure came and was adjusting his hood. Dark, tattooed face with horns and menacing eyes... Haha... then there was Obi Wan Kenobi wearing shades and had a really awesome (I mean really AWESOME) lightsaber that looks 80% like the real thing. Amazing how advancements in technology have enabled us to create. I guess they're part of some promotion, louis vuitton handbags because their costumes were way too accurate to be fan-made. Or maybe they're really diehard fans? Anyway, since the lightsaber's so cool, I might wanna get one. My bro's eyeing it too. A regular columnist in The Malay Mail also stated she bought one after seeing it in action.
Oh well, here's to a good week ahead, two birthdays and a blockbuster movie. I pray to the Lord that all goes well and he guides me through.

Painful Times and Premiere Tix...
A number of things are occuring in my life right now... well, stress at work is one thing, and I'm sure I can handle that. A fren of mine is also having some problems with workload, but I'm goin to do my best to lessen the burden. Because nobody deserves to be worked so hard like that... But what troubles me now most is something I don't even dare to write about. It's the sheer amount of pain it causes me, to find out something you just didn't want to find out, to know that a dream that's just too hard to achieve, even though you try so damn hard. For me, well, I might have encountered emotional pains in the past, many in fact. True, these hurt like shit but I moved on, I have faith that I can carry on, and that there are friends who support me no matter what. God bless them, they know who they are... thanks for all your help and comfort. Lets just put it this way, I'm no quitter. Never was, and I am someone who won't just sit and let destiny run its course. If there's something I try hard to achieve, I'm not a person who plays games. I know what's my aim, and I will try. God knows how hard I try, and I won't stop until there's just no hope. But I understand the laws of give and take. There's no point in just giving and not receiving, but I don't wish for anything in return, and my close friends should understand what I mean. I just wish for people to be happy, because to me, I take it by putting myself in their shoes. How'd they feel, what would they want. And I act accordingly. Because most of the time I've been there, done that. I know how it feels, so that's how I do things. Well, if you don't quite understand this, it's okay, just move on to the next paragraph... All I intend to do is, like a good friend of mine put it, "Just wait and see, be cool and don't let it take over your life. If it's meant to be, it will.". Thanks my friend, you know who you are. God bless you.
Okay, I don't wanna get all gloomy just because of my personal problems... Jessie told us she's gotten us tickets to watch the premiere of Revenge of the Sith! GOLD CLASS! Woo Hoo... she's such a nice CEO, isn't she? :-) Well, I know me, Val and Angi are in the list... I'm just so excited. Allan's coming too I think, I know he wants it so badly too... I hope we're gonna have a great time, and I'll sweep all my worries away... But then again, it's a tragic, violent and sadistic movie, so I don't really know... :-p I just wanna have a good time watching a movie I've been really looking forward to. Wonder how we're gonna go to the cineplex... big convoy of cars? hehe...
Hmm... what else... Angi's birthday's coming real fast. Well, I need to get her something, but not having the time is really the main problem, hopefully this weekend. Okay, better not go too far, in case she's reading this. Hee hee... There's Chong's one too, 3 days after... my, there goes my pay... but it's for a good cause, and it's for people who mean a lot to me, so it's okay I guess... once in a blue moon, as I might say...
Went looking at an accessory shop yesterday, to gauge the price range of things I might consider upgrading. Well, mainly the third brake light. Wanna replace my current LED one with something of higher quality. The silly shop fella recommended me a Proton Saga one. Haiya... but the LED one was way too long and too mengada. So I didn't want them. Then he showed me a neon light beam, you know, the ones for putting underneath your car... he said it could be used inside too. No way dude, an interior looking like a club on a Saturday night just isn't for me... haha. Too Ah Beng la~ Was looking for a woofer too, but they're so UGLY! I don't want a giant box lying in my gorgeous 525-litre boot... Have to survey around. And he was going on about needing to have an amplifier if you wanna fix a woofer. I mean, hello... I DO have an amplifier, that's why I'm looking for a woofer. Haha... Costs quite a bit, but then again, I don't intend to splash cash like that. I'm a saving-up sorta person... Need an alarm system too, chanel handbags don't think my Trojan warrior axe steering lock is enough for car security... Even though 155s are not usually aimed by car theives, but it's always good to be safe. Didn't look at the steering area, cos my dad's giving me his Momo... Haha, I just looked around but I didn't buy anything. Will get just one thing at the end of the month, based on priority...
Oh well, that's just me babbling bout my life and experiences... Till next time,

Mum's Day, Guess Who, Chicken Rice Shop, TV Page, Tyres and Photos
Hmm... haven't been writing for a couple of days...
Okay, last weekend was Mother's Day. Lets just say I had a great time and spent the weekend bonding with my mum and catching up on happenings of the week. There were lots of funny stories and chatter and I'm not gonna write it down here... Took my mum and family to watch Guess Who. Paid by me of course, now that I'm earning... The movie was really funny, and we laughed so much! If you haven't watched it, you'd better! It's really cool how they make a comedy based on inter-racial relationships... Then later in the evening, I belanja dinner at the Chicken Rice Shop. Was nice, but a little upmarket. Overall we had a great time...
Work's the usual, busy, but I guess I'm able to handle it... I guess things are starting to settle down, and I dun get it, I'm getting the TV page every issue nowadays! Used to be Angi's responsibility, but I guess I dun mind cos I dun wanna see her with red eyes doing it. chanel handbags At least I'm getting faster in doing it... Val's really good, and I see her busy all the time, which sometimes makes me wonder whether she really doesn't want any help, or is she just keeping it to herself... Anyway, today's paper is out, nice to see that my vector finally makes it into a printed media... haha... Must read it later...
The new tyres are really good, and I must say I've never driven a car on such quiet rubber... And it's also the first time any of the cars at home got fitted with sports performance tyres, so it's a cool experience. And it'll be memorable, because I used my first pay on it... My dad finally found out about my Alfa, and he's showing alotta interest, being an Alfa enthusiast himself. He told me he's gonna donate his Momo steering wheel to me. Used to be on his 1980 Alfa Romeo Alfetta. :-p
I've been posting a lotta photos on Multiply recently, and I must apologise to those who're watching me, if they receive tons of notifications... sorry... it won't be like this all the time :-p
Oh well, that's all for today,
PEACE and God Bless,

A Tale of Tyres and Friends
Okay, it's been quite tiring these last few days... haven't gotten enough sleep, working late hours, not much time to chit chat... but life still goes on...
Tyres finally gave way, with a puncture when me, Allan and Harris were going out for lunch. We noticed it when we were eating and looking at the car. The rear driver's side tyre was totally flat. I slowly drove it back to the office (it was nearby, so it was okay. don't do this if you don't know what you're doing, as you may damage your rims). When at the office, I started attempting to replace it with the spare. louis vuitton handbags Angi borrowed me a spanner from her Wira. Well, there was a little shock back then, as I forgot about the difference between the PCD 98 of an Alfa and the PCD 100 of a Wira... The spanner just turned without any effect to the nut! Well, me and Harris were stuck there like some bengang people. Then Harris told me that there was an Esso nearby in Jalan Ampang that could service tyres. So he took his manual pump and pumped my rubber to add in some air. I drove quickly but carefully to the shop, which changed the wheel to the spare, but said there was no tyre size (as expected, I guess 195/60 R14 are really rare...). But he said I could slam in a set of 185/60 R14s... but would look a little narrow. I told him thanks for the help, but I'm not changing the rubber. Drove back to the office and later in that day, slowly drove back home, as the red spare could only do a max of 50MPH or 80KMH...
Today managed to find our way to Stanford Tyres in Glenmarie. Was quite tough to find, but it was worth it, as they had the correct tyre size, with 3 patterns, and tons of rims to stare at... Chose the Falken Azenis ST15, as it was recommended by the dealer, and it was RM30 cheaper per tyre than the Falken Ziex ZE512 that I was eyeing... Apparently it was quiter and more durable. Later I found out it was a high performance tyre (I mean, I should have noticed the 'Azenis' name sooner, which is normally associated with street racing). It had a way cool design with 2 rows of water channels and the word 'Azenis'embossed in the groves! Awesome... and well, the car was nothing like I've ever felt, driving smoothly and quitely... Guess I made the right choice. Yeah, of course it meant a lot to me, it came from my paycheck! Read some more in the brochure that it has a base thread rubber that holds 60 million pieces of micro vaccum capsules to cut road noise. Whatever... Guess I'm not going to be eyeing any 17-inchers for a couple of years...
Been updating my Multiply photo pages, there's tons more to come, but there's no time to upload... might consider a nostalgic 'College Photos' section someday. haha... We're all also laughing at Allan's photo eating the cake... It must be the funniest photo ever taken! Haha... Go check it out...
As for the workplace, well... pretty busy, but we do have our happy moments. I must say having Val and Angi as working collegues would be one of the best things God could have given me for my first job. For that I'm very thankful. There's probably no dull moment, with the endless chat topics and funny stuff we do. And the occasional fulat jokes with Allan. Angi's been wearing glasses for a number of days. I told her she looks cute, like a scholar, but she doesn't believe me. She's probably a little shy when wearing glasses instead of contacts I guess... And Val, she's such a nice person. I mean, she's really nice, but she can be quirky too. And that's a real interesting feature about her. Never saw that in college though. hee hee...I'm just so happy to have them as my friends. Oh, and there's Ray too. He can be subtle most of the time, but when he strikes, haha... things like the Fulat Lifestyle cover comes out...
Hmm... what else... donno la, I'm wanting to watch Kingdom of Heaven... and not forgetting Episode III is less than 2 weeks away! Well, hope this sorta things can get me off the reality of the pains I'm experiencing. Maybe it's God's way of making things work, I'll just trust Him and hope he guides me to the right path.
That's all for today,

Tyres finally gave way, with a puncture when me, Allan and Harris were going out for lunch. We noticed it when we were eating and looking at the car. The rear driver's side tyre was totally flat. I slowly drove it back to the office (it was nearby, so it was okay. don't do this if you don't know what you're doing, as you may damage your rims). When at the office, I started attempting to replace it with the spare. louis vuitton handbags Angi borrowed me a spanner from her Wira. Well, there was a little shock back then, as I forgot about the difference between the PCD 98 of an Alfa and the PCD 100 of a Wira... The spanner just turned without any effect to the nut! Well, me and Harris were stuck there like some bengang people. Then Harris told me that there was an Esso nearby in Jalan Ampang that could service tyres. So he took his manual pump and pumped my rubber to add in some air. I drove quickly but carefully to the shop, which changed the wheel to the spare, but said there was no tyre size (as expected, I guess 195/60 R14 are really rare...). But he said I could slam in a set of 185/60 R14s... but would look a little narrow. I told him thanks for the help, but I'm not changing the rubber. Drove back to the office and later in that day, slowly drove back home, as the red spare could only do a max of 50MPH or 80KMH...
Today managed to find our way to Stanford Tyres in Glenmarie. Was quite tough to find, but it was worth it, as they had the correct tyre size, with 3 patterns, and tons of rims to stare at... Chose the Falken Azenis ST15, as it was recommended by the dealer, and it was RM30 cheaper per tyre than the Falken Ziex ZE512 that I was eyeing... Apparently it was quiter and more durable. Later I found out it was a high performance tyre (I mean, I should have noticed the 'Azenis' name sooner, which is normally associated with street racing). It had a way cool design with 2 rows of water channels and the word 'Azenis'embossed in the groves! Awesome... and well, the car was nothing like I've ever felt, driving smoothly and quitely... Guess I made the right choice. Yeah, of course it meant a lot to me, it came from my paycheck! Read some more in the brochure that it has a base thread rubber that holds 60 million pieces of micro vaccum capsules to cut road noise. Whatever... Guess I'm not going to be eyeing any 17-inchers for a couple of years...

Trials of Life...
Man, early in the morning and I'm tired... all because of a stupid rode closure for some meeting. And mind you it's just a trial... sheesh. It's going to be hell again on Monday, when the real deal happens. Haih... anyway, drove the Bug today. She refused to start the day before... but miraculously was able to today. I was just about to jump-start the battery. Then it just started with one twist of the key! And yeah, it was joy to run it, louis vuitton handbags until the road closure bit. Fuck it la... was lost in the middle of KL, and went a few rounds until I got back to where I started. Then I saw that the road they closed was open. So I went straight to work... Was 15 minutes late. But I guess it's okay since only Angi and a few others were there. And Val came in soon after me...
Tapau-ed some mee hoon for lunch later, got scolding from the fella. Claims he didn't hear me say I wanted 3 bungkus. He made 4. I said I wanted 3... so you can guess what happened... Anyway, I was supposed to bring some Quaker oats new strawberry-dunno-wat which my mum got for me today. But left it on the dining table... Was hoping to drink it in the morning...
Well, work's work... been busy as usual... I think we need another designer. I mean, to help us out... we're dying here with the workload. But I'm not sure on the position of things, as in are they looking for new people or are new people already in the queue... Val invited me to come along to her church, which I might try following her someday to see how it's like. Angi's busy as usual with her Richland freelance job. But it's finishing and I hope her clients like it... There's even a mini mock-up! Haha...
Having a lotta emotional problems lately. Rather tough to manage, but I'm confident that I can handle it. But there are certain times that it's just too much. But I think to myself, that God mentioned that He would not put a burden onto someone who can't handle it. So I pray that may the Lord put my heart at ease and let me be calm at these times...
Hmm... what else to say... saw a Volkwagen Phaeton yesterday night. 1st time I got to see this behemoth. It had a police convoy to accompany it. Wow... must be some bigshot... It's HUGE! I mean, I've seen it in the magazines but I didn't expect it to be that big. It was larger than an S-Class, maybe the same size or larger than the latest 7-Series... And had way cool multi-colored LED rear lamps, which can change into night lamps, brakes or signals. All in one lamp cluster. Way cool... But it costs an arm and a leg of course...
Song of the day:
---
Verse
Spending another night alone
Wondering when I'm gonna ever see you again
Thinking what I would give
To get you back, baby
I should have told you how I felt then
Instead, I kept it to myself, yes
I let my love go unexpressed
'Til it was too late
You walked away
Chorus
Was it something I didn't say
When I didn't say, "I Love You"
Was it words that you never heard
All those words I should have told you
All those times, all those nights
When I had the chance to
Was it something I didn't say
Verse
Always assumed that you'd be there
Couldn't foresee the day you'd ever be leaving me
How could I let my world
Slip through my hands, baby
I took for granted that you knew, yeah
All of the love I felt for you, yeah
I guess you never had a clue
'Til it was too late
You walked away
Chorus
Bridge
All the words were in my heart
They went unspoken
Baby, now my silent heart
Is a heart that's broken
Shoulda said so many things
Shoulda let you know
You're the one I needed near me
But I never let you hear me

Labour Day Blues...
Okay... eventful times... working on Labour Day. Add that to typical Monday blues... How's that for a starting line? hehe... sad as it was, we had to come to work, counting it as OT, 3-times pay. But it was okay, we did a number of pages, finalized the Chief Minister thingy, and I had soup! It was the Soupy Snacks 'Hawaiian' flavour... was pretty weird, chanel handbags think i'll stick to the usual flavours... Work was until about 6... sigh... was rather tired. That night went to Muhibbah for dinner, had the super yummy spring rolls and Cantonese kway teow... had a real good time.
Plagued by a lotta personal problems lately, at times it's okay, I'm confident that I can solve it, but there'll be times when all lets go, and the only way I go is down... sigh, but I do have a good friend who's willing to listen to my nonsense problem, and giving advice... I do pray to God that the outcome will be good...
Played Street Racing Syndicate again, but for a short while only... Raced my Jetta to a few wins, and also took another challenge from a bitch. sheesh... Now the Volkswagen has Greddy turbo and weight reduction, including carbon fiber parts... hehe...
My car was sparkling white, thanks to a polish job sponsored by my mum. She said it's the last polish she'll ever pay for me... :-p The tyres look new for a while, even though they were worn out... And I bumped into a Toyota Unser today... goodness, I thanked God that he didn't stop and ask me to pay. Pray that God helps him forgive me for that, it was really a bumper-to-bumper crawl after the Puchong toll...
Now I have my own PHOTOS page!!! Using my Multiply site to post my photos, so do visit it at http://raptorclans.multiply.com/photos/ There aren't many pics yet, but there will be. At least there will be better space to display photos and also thumbnails... Go check it out...
Nothin much at the moment, till next entry then... Thanks for reading,

I got my first pay! Tales of wheels, dreams and busy times...
Hmm... the month has ended, and I've officially worked for a month! Wow, time sure passes fast. Got my first paycheck at the end of the month... pretty excited, but must now think carefully on how to spend wisely. Going to give my mum some, and she's also saying that I should apply for insurance. Come to think about it, I think Angi applied for it too. And I have people I promise to spend a meal, namely my uncle and family, as well as Angi, who still thinks I'm gonna keep the money for myself. haha... oh ya, not forgetting Val and Ray too. That's a lotta money, hope they go to budget places. haha...
Went to Eneos today to replace my tyres. And hoping to find new rims to fit in, as there was a tyre and rim promotion. Then I saw my dream set of rollers... 17-inch CE28N Volk Racing wheels by Rays Engineering... at an attractive price too! Only RM8xxx! WAAAAHHHH! So siao... But there were smaller replicas by K-Speed, and were selling for 16xx, together with a set of 15-inch rubber. I was pretty excited, chanel handbags but sadly, I found out the PCD size of an Alfa Romeo 155 is 98, unlike the 100s of Japanese cars... And to make matters worse, I can't even change the rubber! There's no tyres for the 195/60 R14 wheels!!! Not even my beloved Falken Ziex... sigh... have to look elsewhere I guess. They say Italian rims are the best bet, but do they seriously expect me to fork out cash for a set of Sparco/Momo/Allessio rims? I don't think so...
Woke up this morning feeling rather blur. Had a dream... bout something I think about everyday. And I guess it happened in the dream, and when I woke up, I was struggling to differenciate dreams from reality. And how depressed I was when I found out it was all a dream... It was like, shocking, alarming. I soon came to know which was the real world... But I tell myself I'd be strong, and I'll work hard to make my dream a reality. Hope God understands my intentions...
Played Street Racing Syndicate. It finally could run, after a graphic card driver software I downloaded from the office. It's a pretty good game, much like a Need for Speed : Underground clone. But what I didn't really like about the game are those 'Respect Challenges', in which you have to earn the respect of a bitchy woman in order to have her become your girlfriend. Eeew... I'm like, if the woman judges you like that, would you wanna go out with her? No way! And she's like... a real bitch. Cis bedebah. With the tone and the dressing... Dunno bout other people, but definitely not my taste... Kinda disturbing, I'd never go out with such a person in real life. And you need to do that to earn respect points, part of the game. Anyways, I bought a Volkswagen Jetta, sprayed it orange, GT wing, CE28N Volk Racing wheels, lowered suspension, neons, bodykit and sports exhaust. hehehe... Handling's kinda lame (the game) though...
Hmm... what else... Saturday's work was hell... We had to do the layout designs for the Chief Minister of Sarawak's birthday thingy.. and there is going to be 100 pages to do! Aaargh... and the news department couldn't run properly due to network and internet down-time. And it lasted practically the whole day... Me and Ray had to go to Low Yat Plaza to retrieve a new modem for the office, and after all the jam and stress, the modem didn't work. How amusing... Cis. However, our IT technician, James, managed to get the system up and running byt the end of the day. I had to go back to Low Yat and return the darn modem!!! And I didn't know where on Earth it was!!! Good thing James decided to follow me, he went into Low Yat and returned it, and I sent him back to his place. It was one heck of a tiring day, an I can see it was taking a toll on Angi and Val too... and sifu and Ray as well... sigh. We have to work hard, but I didn't know it was this hard... and something bad tells me the worse is yet to come... I have a bad feeling about this...
Posted a few photos of our workplace. Mostly candid... Courtesy of Val, she borrowed my digicam and snapped a few pics. Sadly, this is also the same reason why she isn't in it! Hope to get some site where I can upload photos for easier viewing, cos Blogger doesn't have a photo page...
Ah... I got a couple of movie passes to watch Guess Who. Angi and Val got them too, so I can't give one to them... wonder who to give to. We might be going to watch it together, if there is free time that is... Look forward to it...
Hmm... I'm sure I had something else to say, but can't really remember at the moment. So it's until here for now,
PEACE and God Bless,
